Uh I'm stuck between 206 and 211 and its driving me crazy. I'm not sure what's driving me crazier..... My children,this crazy stall or ny lack of sleep

I can't wait to be under 200 pounds .

Me too Fiesty! Make sure you update your weight on the right column cause your tracker still has you at 222.

It is weird, I was trying to switch to weekly weigh in but it made me nervous. back to weighing every day. At least though I am aware of what my weight is doing. You know a lot can go wrong in a week.

Keeping fighting Fiesty it will come off.

199.2 finally this week Onederland slow process but it works. My biggest concern is I am still on insulin. Another 40 lbs to go. Down 46.

. I changed my hair color this weekend and am loving it!

Love it richeycop! !!!

Thanks me too!! Ive gotten lots of compliments ???? new hair for new me

Thanks Mis,I will have to get on the laptop and change that. My cell is a loaner phone and sucks so it won't let me do anything without closing down. Thank you for the encouragement

hey guys how is everyone doing??

Just wanted to check in and see how everyone was doing haven't heard from anyone lately! Hope all is well with everyone!

Hey Ritchey, how are you? I completely skipped over the last post for some reason. I have moved across the US to the east coast and it has been quite an experience. Things are becoming more settled here, and I should be able to check in a little more frequently.

As far as progress goes, I am down a total of 55lbs, at 191.6, so inching closer to the 180's. During the move and subsequent settle phase, there may have been a stall, but I would not have known for the scale was not available, so I am glad to have had my mind otherwise involved with other stuff. I have to say, I thought the travel was going to be difficult with only being able to eat certain things, but it turned out to be not so bad at all. I got crazy looks for how I asked for my food, all beef hot dog or burger, no bun, etc. But of course I am no stranger to this because I had done this before as I don't generally eat bread any way. Of course I packed my Premier Protein so I was supplementing. But 1 burger or hot dog would last me at least 2-3 meals so it was definitely a money saver : >.

I am getting pretty use to what my tummy will except and therefore sliming and vomiting have subsided. I do have regular coffee now as my first meal of the day. LOL of course the creamer is generally half a vanilla premier protein (15g).

I have pretty much giving up on nuts. Only because I cannot even eat a serving without feeling ill. But peanut and almond butter make me happy. I do have sunflower seeds, but I have to get the ones still in the shell because I eat them much slower, they are small, and agree with my tummy. A great theater food when avoiding popcorn (just need a bag or something for the shells).

ok enough rambling for me, tell me how you guys have been.

How is everyone? sorry it's been so long since I have been online and checked on everyone

I am glad you all checked in!! I am glad your doing well!!! Sounds like your all doing great! I am down to 197 as of this morning I was at a stall for about a month! Ugh but I am starting back up now, have lost inches though notice that my clothes are looser! Yay hope you all can stay in touch!

Morning! Found this thread today. I am doing ok. I have been stalled for almost 2 weeks at 184. I am down 72 lbs since my first weigh in, 59 lbs since surgery day. (I am 5'4", 38 yrs old) I got pretty lazy physically and stopped tracking during that time so I have gotten back into it. I am hoping to see some movement soon. At my last Dr appt he set a goal of 161 but thought I'd surpass it. I thought I would too but now I'm not sure. He said the next 30 lbs would be harder and he is right. So glad I found this thread! Take care everyone.

Hey everyone...last weeks weigh-in put me at 183, I had a stall as well during my move out of state, but lately there has been some movement in the right direction. I expected the slow down so I haven't been too bummed about it.

I do need to move more, but the new job has me so busy. I stopped tracking calories when everyday was looking nearly the same, but if it becomes an issue I will restart, but for now I am focusing on getting my physical routine where I want it to be.

I am glad everyone is doing well...I am eager to see where my body decides it is happy. I can say I would like to be at 145, which is 38 lbs but when I look at myself in the mirror, I do wonder if there is that much still to lose. People had said before that I carry my weight well...My weight hides itself well is much more appropriate to say. But it will not hide for long. I will utilize this tool to its maximum capability.

I cannot believe it had been 5 months as of today.
